---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I stand alone in darkness. I am helpless against the shadows of the night
I cry out to my savior but none is listening, I scream in pain but there is
none to comfort me I see nothing but blackness and death all I see is
emptiness I am truly alone.
    Do not try to imagine how I feel because the shadows will take you as
well, do not cry for me, do not pity me, think not of me but of what I am
leaving behind, my joys my sorrows my laughter my tears all yours until I
return If I return.
    Give my love to those I cherished tell them I miss them and tell them
goodbye for I now have a long journey to accomplish, many a road to travel and
many a night to suffer. So farewell my love, my one true comfort, I will live
forever knowing that you are on the other side. Goodnight, Dream sweetly but
do not dream of me.
